The next time her team played that team, she scored 74. 当Korver的老母还是爱荷华州的热血高校生时， 曾经在一场比赛中攻下63分，而当她下一次遭遇同样对手时， 她又以一己之力拿下74分。 "I asked her," said the newest Utah Jazzman, "'What were those girls thinking the second time?' She was like, 'They were scared.' 「我问她，第二次又把人家打爆的时候对手有什麽感觉？」 刚报到的爵士新好男孩说：「她说他们好像被吓坏了...」 "She's a very humble person; it was really funny when she said that," Korver said. 「我老妈一向是个客气的人，所以她会这麽说我觉得还挺妙的，哈。」 He was born in Los Angeles and lived there until sixth grade, and he "cried for like a week" when his family moved to Pella, Iowa, where his mom grew up and his parents went to college. Korver seems to have a lot of the same quiet Midwestern way about him that he sees in his mother, Laine. K.Korver在洛杉矶出生，并且在那儿念到六年级， 当他爸妈决意搬回爱荷华州的老家时，「我大概整整哭了一个星期。」 由於久居美国中西部，这个地区特有的文静与安定的气息， 也反映在这对母子身上。 Growing up in a Christian family filled with pastors from the Reformed Church of America — his grandfather, father and two uncles are pastors — Korver seems a combination of those religious leaders and his quiet but deadly shooting mother. 在祖父、父亲与两个叔叔都是牧师的基督教家庭中长大， Korver给人的感觉就像是牧师与他那位沈默的王牌杀手老母的合体。 Heck, she doesn't even tease Kyle, one of four Korver sons (brothers Kaleb, Klayton, Kirk), about the scoring for which he's known in the NBA, though his career high is only 31 points last February against New York. Korver在去年二月对纽约尼克队的比赛中拿下生涯新高的31分 — 唔，显然比不上他老妈的辉煌历史，不过他老妈倒是没拿得分这档事儿开他玩笑过。 注：Kyle是Korver家四兄弟之一， 其他三位分别是Kaleb、Klayton、Kirk。(全家都是KK？！) "No, she doesn't," he said, bringing up the way Iowa girls ball was played for many years, six-on-six, with three as designated offensive players, three designated as defenders and no one allowed to cross the center line. He said his mother averaged 43 points a game. 「嗯，她的确不曾这样做过。」新好男孩如是说。 这位爱荷华女子篮球的奇女子，生涯平均得分是43分。 "It was a different game. She didn't ever have to play any defense," he said. 「话不能这样说嘛，她又不用防守。」新好男孩提出抗辩。 注：爱荷华女子篮球的比赛规则是六对六， 其中三个专职进攻球员为一组，另外三个专职防守球员为一组， 彼此都不能跨越中线。(变相三打三？！) While so many in his family are pastors — his parents moved back to Iowa so his father, Kevin, could have his own church — Kyle is content with what he's doing. After all, the whole family plays basketball. His father and four uncles played collegiately, and Mom was the big star. 虽然家族里有这麽多人从事神职工作， 不过Korver还是很满意自己最後选择打职篮。 Korver整个家族打篮球的历史相较於前者可是不遑多让， 包括他的父亲Kevin(各位观众...五个K！)跟四个叔叔伯伯都打过大学篮球， 他老妈刚刚我们也提过了，甚至是个大明星呢！ "I do not have the desire to be a pastor, but it's still definitely a big part of my life. I feel like I can spread what I believe without being a pastor," said Korver, known for his charity work in Philadelphia, where he spent his entire five-year NBA career until Saturday, when he was traded to the Jazz for Gordan Giricek and a conditional draft choice. 「我并不想当个全职牧师，不过信仰仍然是我人生中很重要的一部份， 我相信即使我不是牧师，我还是可以散播欢乐散播爱。」 自其职篮生涯伊始，Korver便以热心从事公益活动而在费城当地着称， 五年来不曾间歇，直到上个周末他在一笔交易中被换到了犹他爵士队。 Korver hopes to start some similar charity work in Salt Lake City and keep up with what he's been doing in Philadelphia because it makes him feel good to help others. "I'm not real preachy with my faith, but I try to show it, and hopefully people take notice," he said. Korver希望能在盐湖城继续从事他的慈善事业， 同时原本他在费城所做的也不会因此而中止，因为他觉得"助人为快乐之本"。 「我并不是个爱讲道的人，我只是把我的爱表现出来， 并希望其他人也能受到启发。」头上有着光环的Korver如是说。 He certainly got a good feeling helping out his new teammates Monday night as the Jazz rolled into the new year by stopping the Portland Trail Blazers' 13-game win streak with a 111-101 victory helped in no small part by the 6-foot-7 Korver's 11 points, two blocked shots, two steals, an assist and a rebound, even if he didn't shoot normally (3-for-7). He did make all four of his free throws — he came into the game shooting .912 from the line. He played the entire fourth quarter. 显然地，Korver明白"为善最乐"的道理在篮球场上一样行得通， 在礼拜一晚上对拓荒者的比赛中，首度登场的Korver不仅打满整个第四节， 更以11分、2阻攻、2抄截外加1助攻1篮板的好表现， 帮助他的新队友拿下胜利，同时也终止拓荒者的13连胜。 Korver got a standing ovation before he even got into the game, with 5:46 left in the first half. In the last 35 seconds, fans began chanting, "Korver, Korver," following it with the familiar clap-clap-clap. Korver在上半场结束前五分多钟第一次获得上场机会， 犹他现场观众纷纷起立鼓掌欢迎这位新成员的到来。 而最後的35秒，「Korver、Korver」的叫喊与爱的鼓励更是响彻云霄。 But then, this guy was even popular in Philadelphia, where he missed his first career shot, and where fans are known to be hard on their own. "I missed it, but I still got a standing ovation because they didn't have anyone that shot threes in a long time, and they were real excited. 不过，这小子当年在费城的初登场，所受到的欢迎可不会比今晚少。 「我生涯第一次出手并没投进，不过观众们还是起立为我鼓掌， 因为当时的七六人已经很久没有人愿意投三分了，所以球迷们都非常兴奋。」 "I've been fortunate," he said, noting that when he played collegiately at Creighton in Omaha the fans there were passionate about their team just like Jazz fans. 「我是无敌幸运星。」Korver说。 打他Creighton大学时代开始，球迷们就像今晚的主场观众一样对他寄予厚爱。 The Ashton Kutcher lookalike was once goaded into signing autographs for people who thought he was Demi Moore's young husband at the 2004 NBA All-Star Game in Los Angeles when he participated in the 3-point contest as a rookie. He is passionate about his basketball. 这位长相与电影明星艾希顿库奇神似的球员， 曾经在2004年洛杉矶明星赛的时候，被误认是黛咪摩尔的年轻丈夫而被要求签名。 不过，那时候的他只是个菜鸟，而且他还是去参加三分球大赛的！ "Absolutely. I love watching film. I love shooting hoops," he said. 「当然啦，我是爱看电影，不过篮球也是我的最爱！」 In grade school, he had to shoot 3s with both hands. Told by an uncle to use one hand, he selected his left because it was stronger, but two years later, the same uncle saw him doing that and switched him to using his right. In high school, he spun the ball "helicopter-style," and an uncle made him work on backspin instead. 小学的时候，Korver只会用双手的力气掷三分， 後来一位叔叔教会他用单手出球，他决定用自己较为有力的左手来练习。 两年後，同一位叔叔又让他改用右手练习三分出手。 高中的时候，另一位叔叔则教会他让球行进时呈後旋转以避免左右漂浮的方法。 Now he's pumped to have a nice practice facility like the Zions Bank Basketball Center. "The place in Philly was horrible. I could stay in that thing (ZBBC) all day. I don't know anyone else here, so it's not like I've got something else to go do, anywhere else to be, so I'll be there all day." 现在他则把时间跟精力都花在设备超赞的爵士队练习中心里。 「我可以整天都待在那儿，因为在盐湖城我还没什麽熟人， 所以既没有非做不可的事情，也没有非去不可的地方， 所以我会在练习中心里待个一整天。」我们的天使少年如此说道。 --
